Missing Manhood: Delta Police Arrest False Alarmist, Launch Manhunt For Mob

The Delta State Police Command has arrested one 18-year-old Ebube Linus, for raising false alarm over his purported missing manhood while on transit with an old woman on a commercial tricycle in Asaba, the State capital.

In a statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Bright Edafe, on Wednesday, titled, ‘SAY NO TO JUNGLE JUSTICE’, he said the incident happened on Sunday, October 8, 2023, wherein after the suspect raised the false alarm, about 100 touts pounced on the woman and almost lynched her when Policemen arrived the scene and rescued her.

He added that the incident was recorded and it has now gone viral, vowing that the Police Command will go after all involved in the attack on the woman and made to face the full wrath of the law.

“On Sunday 8th October 2023 at DBS Road Asaba, this 18-year-old suspect Ebube Linus raised a false alarm that an old woman inside a tricycle touched him and his manhood (penis) disappeared. Over 100 misguided touts gathered and mobbed this woman, stripping her naked and beating her to a stupor to the point of almost killing her.

“The Command was contacted and the DPO GRA division Asaba led policemen to the scene, rescued the woman, and arrested the suspect who we later discovered that nothing was wrong with him, as his manhood is intact. He just lied against a poor woman, a mother, a daughter, and a wife. Now the video of her being beaten and stripped naked is all over the internet. Does this make any sense? Why embark on self-help? why jungle justice?

“We are hunting for everybody on that video and they will be arrested and dealt with in accordance with the law alongside the suspect,” DSP Edafe stated.
